Printing method
Two Checks before Printing
On this machine, ink affixed on the surface of the print heads might be cured by the reflection of the UV-LED lamp
light and by ink mist (ink splashing during printing). If ink affixed on the surface of the print heads is cured, dot
drop-outs may occur. Continued use of the product in this state may cause a failure that requires the replacement
of the print heads.
While daily cleaning is important to prevent dot drop-outs, there are also two important points to check before
printing.
1. Do not use objects that easily reflect light.
Materials that are likely to reflect the UV-LED lamp light, such as mirrors and stainless steel, promote the curing of
the surface of the print heads and therefore cannot be used as the object to be printed on.
2. Shorten the distance to the print heads.
Ink mist scatters as the distance between the print head (
increases. The print head is more likely to contact the object to be printed on as the distance between them
decreases. Set the print head height so that the distance between the object to be printed on and the print head
(
) becomes 0.8 to 2.0 mm (0.04 to 0.07 in.). The distance is automatically set to 2.0 mm (0.08 in.).
) and the surface of the object to be printed on (
